Home Town Art Heroes

Looking about the apartment, I noticed Drew and I have a lot of screen printed art. It just seems to work and it’s affordable art. It’s a good mix between oil paintings and screen prints. I’ll photograph it all one day. For about a year, I’ve been coveting everything from home town company Binth.

Especially this lovely piece.

Because we have all been there – running about the windy city and something flies away from our grasp. Do we play it cool, and loose it to the wind, or do we chase over it? The composition, the simplicity, the girl – it all works for me. I also like the subtle light blue of the sky. Pretty. >le sigh<

Their kids art is great too! I figure, if I have kids, by the time they are nine they will have quite the art collection.

p.s. i hope Drew, my friend Mark, and I get tickets for the Sigur Ros. Chicago show :X!!! Anything Icelandic works for me! > eeek< They are much bigger than they were a few years ago – so, it’s gonna be harder to score those tickets. I can’t stop listening to Gobbledigook!
